— In this paper, we propose a novel approach to solve constrained optimization problems based on particle swarm optimization (PSO). First, an empirical comparison of the most pop...
In this paper we present a preliminary study of palmprint image synthesis and propose a framework for synthesizing palmprint texture. We first extract principal lines of real pal...
In this paper, we extend a (2-D) data-adaptive steering kernel regression framework for image processing to a (3-D) spatio-temporal framework for processing video. In particular, ...
An algorithm for extracting music fingerprints directly from an audio signal is proposed in this paper. The proposed music fingerprint aims to encapsulate various aspects of mus...
This paper introduces a rotation invariant extension to the blur insensitive local phase quantization texture descriptor. The new method consists of two stages, the first of whic...
